    Here is the update. The hole completely tore at the bottom a few days ago. The rest of it is looking fine. All the heads put out tentacles to feed last night.

    Strange, but if it's feeding, that's a good sign..
    I hand feed mine small pieces of raw shrimp 2 or 3 times a week..
    Once they get used to taking it.. They turn into pigs.. LOL
    I think it may heal it's self.. Keep us posted..
    Did the swelling go down on it..??

    Good Luck, Larry
    I like the color of it..

    Thanks Larry. The swelling is gone and it looks like skeleton underneath it. Last night those two polyps and one or two others didn't have the tentacles out when I looked but others did. It almost looks like the polyps are growing and pulling apart from each other so something has to give.

    Yeah I really like the neon green color. Very eye-catching.

    Even without there tentacles out, they will feed..
    I have put a small piece of shrimp right in the center of one and it'll suck it up..
    In the day time with no tentacles out at all.. Then some that want take anything at all.
    I think they need to be alittle older..
    I have 5 different big Frags, and each one acts different..

    Good Luck, Larry
